Since L. serricorne can potentially disperse between different landscapes and may feed on different hosts, understanding insects' host use pattern may help to direct management efforts to specific commodity storages.
Understanding the intricacies in the strategies acquired by a pathogen to remodel its host-cell machinery for successful colonization and persistence within the host requires understanding of protein protein interactions across the host and the pathogen.
Deciphering the interactions between the malaria parasite with the human host and understanding how we acquire immunity to malaria has been fundamental to our malaria vaccine research program.
Therefore identifying the TUNV reservoir host and understanding its ecology could lead to interventions for reducing human exposure.
Because several phams of known function were identified that may contribute to host pathogenicity, understanding these uncharacterized phams is critical to understanding the evolution of pathogenic Bacillus strains.

Examples include better genotypic matching of biocontrol agents and their hosts, and understanding the coevolutionary dynamics of invasive species and those with which they interact (Phillips and Shine 2006; McDonald et al. 2008; Gaskin et al. 2011).
Understanding host-pathogen interactions within reservoir host species and how it differs from hosts that experience severe disease is an important aspect of evaluating viral pathogenesis and developing novel therapeutics and methods of prevention.
Our findings may have important implications for understanding host susceptibility to develop severe chronic infectious disease.
Understanding host immune responses to malaria parasites is crucial for the effective design and implementation of new vaccines and drugs.
